Are We the Place for You?
At Greylock Federal Credit Union ($1.6B, Pittsfield, MA) we are guided by our IDEA principles – Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility – to support a workforce that reflects our community in western Massachusetts, Columbia County, New York, and Bennington, Vermont. We have a mission and goal of building a diverse workforce - reflecting multiple identities - and supporting the diverse communities where we are based.
Our employees are the heart of this mission. From seasoned professionals with decades of experience to emerging leaders shaping the future, we foster a culture of support, learning, and collaboration. As our next VP – Controller, you will have the opportunity to lead with these values in mind, ensuring strong financial stewardship while investing in the growth and development of a highly capable finance team.
Is This the Career for You?
This is more than a financial leadership role, it is an opportunity to serve a respected, community-rooted credit union during a time of transition and legacy building. Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer, the VP – Controller will oversee all daily operations of the Finance department, ensure compliance with GAAP and regulatory requirements, and lead the financial close and reporting process.
In this role, you will guide a team of four professionals, several of whom bring deep institutional knowledge, and be responsible for their continued development in a fast-paced and evolving environment. You’ll help foster a supportive, non-micromanaged team culture, where problem-solving and mentorship are valued.
This is a strategic leadership role that touches nearly every part of the credit union. You will play a critical role in budgeting, financial planning, ALCO participation, internal controls, audit coordination, and process improvement. At Greylock, financial leadership is deeply intertwined with member service and community values. You will be asked to balance financial performance with mission-driven goals, always with an eye on integrity, innovation, and inclusion.
Help Us Get to Know You
We are looking for a strategic finance leader who combines technical expertise with a collaborative, mentoring approach. The ideal candidate will have at least seven years of accounting or finance experience, including team leadership, and hold a bachelor’s degree in accounting or finance (a master’s degree or CPA is preferred). A strong understanding of GAAP, regulatory compliance, and internal controls is essential, along with a demonstrated track record of process improvement, audit coordination, and accurate financial reporting.
Success in this role will require the ability to communicate financial insights clearly to non-financial stakeholders and to support a team with varying levels of experience through adaptable and supportive leadership. Experience in credit unions or banking is a plus but not required. Most importantly, we are looking for someone who leads with integrity, develops others, and aligns with Greylock’s mission and values.
A cover letter and resume are required to complete your application.
